Ordered and payed for my 2011 American Deluxe Amber / Rosewood SSS on February 22.
Paper work says 'due date March 15'.
Now back ordered '2 - 3 months'. No date given.
:(

2-3 months will be my birthday, is there hope ?
or should I try to forget about it until it arrives ?

How long are people waiting for their Strats ?

Major buzz kill ! I hope you have another axe to keep you from going insane for the next two to three months.

It seems most of the U.S. made Strats are backordered at several outlets....
"unusually long shipping delay..." supposed response from Fender.................. :(
It means months, many months so, probably end of May at the earliest.. :cry:
I'm guessing Fender doesn't make all guitars, all the time and just do
runs of certain models at predefined time intervals.
Rock out with what ya got......

Our local Best Buy has the older version available in Amber with rosewood... Last time I looked it was priced at $1,019 in store (more expensive online)...

Soooooooooooo
Best Buy calls up and says the back order is so long that the system automatically canceled my order. I get my money back.
No Strat.

I could put the money towards an ES-339 but I think I will be waiting for that for months also.

Oh well, I got money in the bank. yay :|

The Deluxes are in stock and ready to ship on several online stores. Just shoot one of them mate. I would recommend you Sweetwater or MusiciansFriend.

They prefer spend time making the PAWNSHOP series ( im not going to talk about this , i hate them ) rather than keeping up with the real production ( Std, Dlx, etc).

Not all do, but the ones that sell instruments have a decent selection.
The one near me has 3 sound rooms.
And just for the record, this is not Best Buy's fault.
